Start at the toe and end at the heel, but wait we forgot the cuff! That’s why they say only Houdini could get into these socks. Using the same method as an afterthought heel, you work the cuff after the rest of the knitting is done. Simple stripes add some extra interest, or just pick one color and go for it!

Originally inspired by tales of the amazing Cat Bordhi original design, which can be found here http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/houdini-socks
we came up with something similar accidentally. We are making this pattern permanently free and encourage you to see her much more comprehensive guide to this technique.
